Game of Thrones Articles

Emilia Clarke was on crutches today arriving for an interview in London. Don’t care about the crutches because OMG this dress!
It’s Dolce&Gabbana. It’s perfect. I’m looking for it in New York today.
So. It’s been a few days since the end of season 5. We’ve all had time to process what happened. Full Story

Game of Thrones Season 5, Episode 10 recap.
SPOILERS
Game of Thrones comes to an end, and consequences and uncertainty are doled out to heroes and villains alike. This is a great episode and we’re going full-spoiler, so if you haven’t watched yet, now’s the time to turn around. Full Story

Game of Thrones Season 5, Episode 9 recap.
SPOILERS
Last week Lainey noted that the penultimate episode of Game of Thrones is usually when the Serious Business goes down, but after last week’s episode featured that amazing battle sequence north of the Wall, we all wondered what could possibly top it. Full Story

Game Of Thrones Episode 9 on Sunday. Will the Khaleesi marry that guy? Will Jorah die? Please let him die. I don’t know what the point of that character is anymore. She has Tyrion now. Make Jorah go away. As for Margaery in prison…will old lady Tyrell bust her out of jail? And leave Cersei behind?
Margaery, real name Natalie Dormer, is currently in Serbia evidently shooting a movie with Taylor Kinney, better known as Lady Gaga’s fiancé. Full Story

Game Of Thrones’s Iwan Rheon was at the Glamour Women of the Year Awards last night in London with his girlfriend. Some of you have emailed me lately about how hot he is, like it's a new discovery. Um. Excuse me. We already talked about this a few years ago when I was obsessed with Misfits. Full Story

Check out Kit Harington in New York, having a smoke outside his hotel today, one day after what happened last night – what many are calling one of the best episodes of Game Of Thrones of all time. At least top 3. That battle was so well-directed, but in particular, to me at least, the last minute or so, when Jon and the zombie boss are staring each other down. Full Story

Game of Thrones season 5, episode 8 recap
Hands down this is Jon Snow's best episode to date. The battle at Castle Black last year was good, but this episode features one of the best battle sequences in the entire series (so far). I'd put the White Walkers’ attack on Hardhome right next to the Battle of the Blackwater. Full Story

Game of Thrones Season 5, Episode 7 recap
Last week Sansa suffered marital rape and it set off a big controversy, as rape scenes on this show always do. A lot of that is because in the past this show has not done well by these storylines, too often reducing rape to a plot point, or worse, mere background action. Full Story

Game of Thrones Season 5 Episode 6 Recap
Weddings in Westeros give me such a bad feeling. Has anyone’s marriage ended well on this show? Ever? This week it’s Sansa’s turn, and boy, does her wedding night not go well. There is simply no escaping that Sansa is going to suffer as the wife of Ramsay Bolton. Full Story

Game of Thrones Season 5, Episode 5 recap
This week we get to see the one thing I’ve been wanting to see since Daenerys’s dragons started eating people, which is Daenerys’s dragons eating people. In retaliation for the ambush by the Sons of the Harpy that killed Barristan Selmy and seriously wounded Grey Worm, Daenerys rounds up the heads of the rich families in Meereen and then she feeds one of them to Viserion and Rhaegal. Full Story

Game of Thrones Season 5 Episode 4 Recap
Slightly boring episode this week since there isn’t a strong theme uniting the different narrative threads. We do get to catch up with the agenda down in Dorne—chiefly that Ellaria Sand and the super awesome kickass Sand Snakes are going to f*ck some Lannister sh*t up—but mostly it’s just table-setting for future episodes. Full Story

Game of Thrones Season 5, Episode 3 recap
At the beginning of Game of Thrones there were a lot of characters spread across a vast land, all with different motivations. Now, five seasons into the story, there are still a lot of characters and the land is even vaster, but the motivations have narrowed down to one thing: Vengeance. Full Story

Game of Thrones Season 5, Episode 2 recap
I try really hard not to get invested in anyone on this show because they inevitably die in horrible ways, but Arya Stark is my tomboy spirit animal. This episode has less of a place-setting feel than last week, but we still have to establish where Arya is (as well as what’s going on in Dorne). Full Story

Game of Thrones Season 5, Episode 1 recap
Well it’s nice to know that Cersei was always a brat. Season five opens with a flashback to Cersei’s childhood when she visited a witch in the woods and made the witch tell her the future. Surprisingly, the witch didn’t say, “You spend all your free time f*cking your relatives and your father will never love you. Full Story
